A1. I think if a place, structure, or even a plant impacts on culture or the world today it should be protected. #RedwoodTrees and well as #BrroklynBridge #TRLT @TheTravelCamel @carornocar @RTWBarefoot

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot #trlt #a1 I've spent a lot of time lately on rail trails. They are ancient in my books because they have been through abandonment and now re-use. In many cases the woodlands around are still ancient, because a railway does not carve the same path a road does.

A2: #India is an interesting mix of ancient and modern. There are ancient Hindu temples, such as this one, and plenty of modern conveniences too. Despite being an ancient religion, Hinduism is still widely practiced, especially in India. #TRLT
